"Was happy with the service provided and the videos sent showing the problems with the car. My issues are that the car was meant to be returned after the service which didn't happen. I was also asked to pay more than the agreed upon price when picking up my car. It makes me wonder about the validity of this website when garages can make up their own price when the work is complete."

What do you think about when choosing a garage for your service?

How do you choose where to take your car for its annual check-up? Do you ask family and friends for advice and recommendations?
Or perhaps you just pull in at the first open garage you see and hope for the best? Well, now there’s a better way. At
BookMyGarage we’ve worked hard to provide an authoritative comparison site where you can instantly weigh up the garage
options in Bridgend. Compare local garages’ prices, speed and quality of service, and customer reviews and then complete your
booking at a fixed price, at the time of your choice. It’s that easy!

When should you get your car serviced?

Do you know how often you should get your car serviced and what type of service you need? There is no hard and fast rule -
it depends on the model of car you have and its age. You should find this information in your car owner’s manual. If you’re not
sure, enter your mileage on BookMyGarage and we’ll help you decide. As a general recommendation, you should be taking your car
for a Full Service every 12 months (or 12,000 miles) and a Major Service every couple of years (or 24,000 miles). If you’re
regularly travelling far beyond Bridgend for work or to visit relatives, or you have a car with known issues, it’s worth getting
an Interim Service every 6 months (or 6,000 miles).

What is a common car problem to look out for?

Now and again you might find it hard to turn the steering wheel or, worse, it might lock altogether. This is clearly a
problem with the steering but it can have several different causes. Start by checking the power steering fluid levels -
there may be a leak. Other causes might be a slipped steering pump belt, damage to the hose that connects to the power steering
pump or to the rack and pinion seals. Steering problems that aren’t related to power steering might be the result of unequal
tyre pressure, worn steering gear bearings, or loose steering linkage. If you can’t easily identify the cause, or can but
aren’t sure how to fix it, BookMyGarage will show you garages in Bridgend which can help with this type of problem.

What do you need from your garage?

You may live within walking distance of a garage which offers most of the services you need. However, by sticking
with the nearest garage in Bridgend you could be missing out on a better deal. What if a garage with a collection / drop
off service or courtesy car could do the same job at a good price, without the inconvenience of losing your car for the
duration of the repair? BookMyGarage allows you to search for local garages which offer this facility, and compare their
prices, all in one session.
